Target Station components Proton Beam Window (PBW) • Function – Separating the monolith atmosphere from the high vacuum of the accelerator beam pipe • Window Al 6061 -T 6 Expected lifetime – A half up to one year at full power operation (5 MW) • Target Imaging Systems – Luminescent coating • Thickness of the coating needs to be defined • Quality assured uniformity of the coating • Max temp. 130°C for < 0. 5 h • Coating procedure needs to be qualified – Fiducials • Placement and dimensions not defined • Manufacturing process needs to be defined Luminescent coating
Target Station components Target Wheel/ Beam Entrance Window (BEW) • Function – Conversion of a highly intense, pulsed proton beam to free neutrons via the spallation process – Distribute the power over a large volume and remove heat from the target material • Expected lifetime – The current estimation of the maximum target wheel lifetime is 5 to 10 years • Target Imaging – Luminescent coating on BEW • Thickness of the coating needs to be defined • Quality assured uniformity of the coating • Coating procedure needs to be qualified BEW
Schedule PBW Preferable to coat the PBW in Trollhättan before assembly of complete plug • Maufacturing finished Q 3 2018 • Installation in Monolith September 2019 BEW Portable combustion-gun Coating on the complete TW can be made in Lund • TW/BEW delivered to Lund Q 2 2019 • Installation in Monolith February 2020 PBIP Test assemble of mirrors in optical slices in Spain • Manufacturing of slices finished Q 1 2019 Final assemble and alignment of mirrors in Mock-Up • PBIP delivered to Lund Q 2 2019 • Installation in Monolith April 2020
